Frank's Cafe at Bold Tendencies in Southwark

Had a margarita before dinner. Very well made, it’s a venue that needs great weather and best enjoyed with a group. Cool views!

The view is fantastic, but the wait for the bar is very very long. The QR code ordering sometimes shows the full menu, sometimes not. Cocktails are ok. Worth a visit.

Rustic but good Up 6 flights of stairs Great view over London

For me a place to have a drink is not just about having a drink, it's about the atmosphere, the service and the good vibes. And while the place is nice, the sleep is rude. I would never recommend a friend to go to this place. Especially because the owner is rude and arrogant.

great view and fun place to hangout

This place is long established, no excuse for compost toilets at this stage! The place is also very short on furniture…

witnessed something absolutely shocking and embarrassing for Frank's café and their staff. Two peaceful kids about 20, intensely HARASSED and eventually KICKED OUT by 3 security guards, for eating their own food ! Not everyone can afford your prices franks! they were trying to eat some Food they had brought, while enjoying the sunset like everyone else. they were obviously exhausted and just needed to eat, and i guess could not afford the gentrified restaurant prices. I've been going to this south london roof top for 15 years and I was ashamed to see what I saw. by the time they were getting forced out, the girl was visibly upset, crying. probably very humiliated and hungry, as they had drawn attention. The whole scene was violent and aggressive and I saw 3 big men leaning over 2 young scared kids, just to poor shame them and eventually force them out. i don't know if i wil be coming back here. i am genuinely ashamed of FRANK'S CAFE AT BOLD TENDENCIES

3/5 as the views are spectacular but I’ve never had worse drinks in my life. Watered down w no alcohol but £11 each. Not great, but vibes are worth a short visit.

Guy at the door took my packed food away. Then proceeded to say don’t worry your food isn’t even going to be kept here, and when I’ve asked him where would he be putting my food he said he wasn’t allowed to tell me where it was . Honestly, if I wanted to finish my food I would have done it where I bought it, who wants to eat cold roast dinner? On an open rooftop? Really pissed me off when I left as I’ve seen some white guys carrying bags of Pringles.

Loved it there . Great food , vibe and views. Bit quirky , unusual and really friendly

Mandatory 5% service charge for pouring a pint. Very sneaky. Pay your staff a proper wage instead of passing on the cost to your customers.

Nice rooftop bar for amazing view. Highly recommended

Spectacular views, disappointing drinks. We ordered a beer and a rum punch and received a flat beer and rum with pineapple juice in a plastic cup.

I ordered a Shipyard and was served probably the flattest beer I've ever seen in my life. If your machine isn't working, don't serve me the bad beer... 😤 Great view, though.

Had the best cheese toastie of my life, and an amazing rum iced coffee cocktail.

Have to say the best bar and views I have had in years

Great location! Food is decent but expensive for the quality and size...

Good views but terrible beer and bad service

The staff behind the bar just seem to walk off without serving you and the toilets smell really bad.

They didn't have a huge range of beers and food available when I arrived at 7pm but the security guard, Mohab was an absolute legend. Super helpful. Thank you.

One of the best views of London. Great place to drink with friends.

I visited here today just after the sunset time since I had learned about their reputation as one of the best roof-top bars in London and today's extreme heat made me really thirsty. Despite the long queue outside the building, the rooftop was so spacious that there still remained plenty of free space and I was able to take in the stunning views of London to my heart's content. Since I wanted to get something frozen I asked one of the bartenders some questions. Kerry, a black female bartender, though I'm not sure about the spelling of her name, was really accommodating and competent. So much so that, the interaction with her made my great experience here even better. Frozen Paloma tasted fantastic as well.

Always good to visit, get your steps in then astonishing views over London

It is the most amazing panoramic experience I've had since The Shard. Do it for that alone and then drink in the art and the drinks.

Great views. Quick queue. Toilets a bit whiffy but the speed of the bar staff and the wide open space upstairs more than makes up for it.

Good spot for a drink and views of London.

Nice rooftop bar with good views over London. The roof is massive and has all kinds of art installations. Not much choice for beers Estella and Shipyard IPA on draft is not great but the view makes it up.

Quirky rooftop bar/ restaurant at the top of Peckham levels

The view and the beans on toast are on point

The view is interesting. Cocktails are average. It's a huge park lot so it really doesn't have a vibe. But it's still worth visiting for a beer and a good view of the city.

The food is good, a bit expensive; the service is slow and not the best; the atmosphere is great

Funky venue, pretty fun and unique. Fox was good. Not greatest selection of beers but definitely worth a visit. I will go back for sure.

Strange place, decent view if you like the view from south of the river. Toilets are baffling, gender neutral, fair play if that’s what’s hip at the moment, but no water to flush toilet only sawdust. Believe this is to save the planet but this seems counterintuitive as you have sinks and paper towels to wash your hands with. As usual overpricing non alcoholic beers, with only one on offer. No music either.

Love Frank's Cafe! Some staff on the day, was a bit blunt behind the bar but I hope they had a bad day! Also please add more shade on the tables!

I went with my friends for birthday drinks and Mila was super lovely and accommodating! Thank you for your hospitality and service, definitely coming back x

Came here for a first time, celebrating my friend bday. Mila was our waitress, we got the best service ever! Thanks Mila 😌

Such an incredible view. Definitely worth a visit.

The cutlery and plastic glasses were dirty, the food so low quality and badly cooked and there was a hair in my food, perfect combination! Then the toilets are the most disgusting thing I have ever seen, I’m shocked they are legal!

Incredible place! Made my weekend visit to london very memorable.

Amazing drinks, lovely spot, gorgeous view in the evenings! Had such a lovely bartender she recommended me the cucumber cooler exactly what I needed on a hot summers day - so thank you Edith!!! Will defo b coming back thru the summer 🧡

The views are amazing, the vibe is 👌

Great vibe, lovely view, its a lovely place to go with friends or in a date

Hands down the best rooftop in London. Amazing 360 views of London’s skyline from the south. Good selection of drinks. Great vibes, nice atmosphere! Been going there for many years and it never disappoints. Can get really busy at certain times, especially in the summer when the weather is good! They have art displays/installations too.

Absolutely love it here, basic setup but worth it for the view alone. Also prices half decent for London!

This was a bad experience...weird 'art' (a statue of a pigeon with a bomb attached to its back...weird writing sprouting weird sayings), a terrible selection of drinks - a cucumber cooler? It's just felt like a festival without any good music... Not coming back, and I live local 🤨

Has so much potiential however the staff are something else. I used to be a regular but the staff now make you unwelcome, have an attitude and enjoy being rude. Its a shame, but would rather go somewhere a bit more friendly.

Wat à top location in a super district. I love Peckham and this rooftopbar is thé finish for an informal drink and bite. What a view!!!

lovely pimms and wine. Company was great can’t complain and the atmosphere was giving …

Perfect place for a chill summer evening. One of the very few London rooftops that has an amazing view but it’s not posh and pretentious. Great vibes, good food and drinks and reasonably priced!

£6.83 for a flat pint of beer in a plastic cup that’s been sat there for ages after being pre-poured. And the cheek to include a 5% service charge? Service charge for what? Handing over a terrible pint that was poured half an hour earlier? Disgraceful.

Ideal sunset spotting location - great vibes, amazing views, excellent wines and an epic instagrammable pink staircase for those interested in photoshoots!

The chic rooftop bar and brunch spot has decent food and nice vibes, who could have known? As long as the weather's nice, it's well worth grabbing a bite up here on a quiet day.

This used to be a good bar but gone down hill drastically in recent years! Ordered wings and chips. Chips were inedible. Seemed like they were reheated. Five wings at a tenner. Rip off. Please improve next summer!

Went as part of bold tendencies offer . Ordered a drink at the bar and was charged a service charge . In between ordering and serving the drink was exactly half a meter and both staff were behind the bar ! No notice of a service charge on the mini menu . Have emailed and contacted on messenger but no response. Also no way to pay In .....further devisive measure and possibly illegal . I'd love a response please . I've emailed you a few days ago and again today . Do get in touch

Good for the views. Pleasant staff, but under utilised, and too pricey for what's there.

Nice big space, though limited seating. Drinks are lovely but a tad pricey

What a place! You can't miss the pink, as a friend said while giving directions. Go early for a nice view, enjoy the drinks and the eco-toilet! It's a little strange to feel this gentrified in the neighbourhood, so expect a lot of contrast between here and the journey there. Still, a nice spot for a drink. The banker types only come later so, another reason to go early!

Good for some chill drinks in the sun on a Sunday, not a strong vibe though.

Frank's used to be somewhere fun to go to but now it seems to be staffed with killjoys armed with a list of rules.

Laid back bar with good drink options and stunning views of London!

Whoa those toilets. Quite an experience. It is a really cool venue, but there is no excuse for only selling Maltsmith's IPA in 2022. Especially with so many really great local breweries. View is stunning, vada pav was good though messier than ideal.

Beautiful views and friendly staff. Giuseppe helped me find the beauty of cocktails. Would recommend to a friend

Chiara and Amara were so nice and professional they were honestly the best customer service I’ve ever had un my life. Franks is such a fun place to spend the night

Great rooftop. Maddie serving at the bar was amazing. Makes the best pims

rad place with rad views. staff were lovely, especially Giuseppe, very knowledgeable and friendly guy and made a great cocktail. will be back soon!

Chiara and Amara we’re very positive and genuine to me when I arrived. I came alone and they brought some good vibes when taking my order and giving me food.

Chiara and Amara, great customer service & really made me feel welcome the whole time! Great experience would recommend to everyone I know in the world!

Came up last night to enjoy the fab view. Although it was very biz we were served swift by the lovely Flo (?) who served us for most of the night. Great recommendations on bevs and also where to go next. Thanks hun! Great night and lots of fun although maybe too much fun cause I fell down the pink stairs on the way out.

Best Rooftop in London! Beautiful views, friendly atmosphere and super nice staff. Waitress Chiara told us the best joke!!!

such a lovely place for a nice sunny day ☀️ great drinks and food choice! chiara was the friendliest waitress who took good care of us

Lovely service from amara and chiara!

Chiara and amara are amazing! The service was perfect, really kind people

Fantastic place!! Amazing views, but not as amazing as Amara and Chiara who were so kind and helpful. Incredible.

Chiara and Amara they were the most amazing and helpful ladies I’ve had the pleasure of meeting at franks caf

Had an amazing time at Frank's, best of all Tommy's kindness and charm makes the whole place 10times brighter. Go to Frank's and meet Tommy!

Fantastic rooftop bar with great views of the sunset over London. A must visit in Peckham. Great selection of drinks and food, and art to boot. Lovely staff, Tommy in particular was very helpful. I will be back!

Chiara and Amara were the most professional servers I've ever had in all my 32 years

Great bar. Frosty pints served with warm smiles by the lovely waiter Tommy. No fuss fun. Will be back when I’m next in town no doubt.

Chiara and Amara were incredibly helpful, I threw a party for my wife and they made everything so easy. I will tell all my friends about franks.

I visited Franks after being recommended by my friends, I was blown away by the incredible food and service. Especially Chiara and Amara who went above and beyond to give great service with a smile :) will be coming back for sure

Incredible rooftop bar with great views over London - perfect for sunset. Service by Chiara and Amara was amazing, highly recommend!!

I had a wonderful time at Frank’s. The viewing was amazing. Chiara was an excepcional waitress so charming and lovely, very friendly. The food was really nice. I would recommend a friend.

Great drinks amazing view ofc and excellent service especially from a bevested young man called Tommy 👍

Dear franks, this was great - tommy’s service was second to none - will pitentially return just for that but i love this place

Amazing place, great views and the barman in the cool vest (Tommy?) was incredibly kind while I was mourning a beloved family pet

Always enjoy coming here!!! and always received the best service from Tommy!!!

I stumbled upon Frank's one afternoon and was absolutely blown away by their cocktails. Special thanks to Tommy Smooth, (as he introduced himself). One of the fantastic team up at Frank's, he really went the extra mile and ordered me a taxi.

Tommi was a superstar. Will be back

Tommy was superb, I would come back just for him x

I left a brutal but deeply honest review on the state of their aperol spritz. They responded quickly to rectify it which is respectful (so I’ve adjusted the review) . Hopefully I can take them up on their offer and give them five, rather than get one free, pay for one and then the other half price for the second (don’t believe in scalping businesses!). It was one small shot of Prosecco added for nearly £10 To clear it up and teach them something - it’s an aperitif, not a cocktail - it’s two parts Aperol and three parts Prosecco, topped with a little soda.

Pas de boissons qui me convienne et pas de quoi manger

Nice place to have a drink with friends

Great place, brilliant in the good weather and prices were good for such a popular place. Got the wings and chips and they were delicious, make sure to get there before 6.30pm, when we arrived at 6.20 there was no queue but when we left a couple hours later, the queue was 45 mins long. Definitely a place to go to with a group of mates.

Great place for a evening out with friends in the summer

Eric served me a drink which I asked for and adapted it to my needs. He’s an amazing mixologist and was so understanding. I had an incredible drink and wonderful night thanks to Eric x

Die Outdoor Rooftop Bar bietet einem einen fantastischen Ausblick über London. Es ist eine tolle Location für Drinks bei tollen Wetter. Lediglich die Toiletten sind gewöhnungsbedürtig (Festivaltoiletten). Eher Locals als Touristen ;-)

Best place in London hands down <3

Good views with a large open space. Drinks prices are slightly expensive (£5.50 to £6 for a beer I think), but you are slightly paying for the view and is probably in-line with other bars like this. Generally no queue or very short ones post lockdown. Would recommend again and is a good place to show for non-Londoners who want to see the "less touristy" side of the city, although you do get a few Buckinghamshire/Hampshire types who thinks their hipster here

My favourite rooftop in london. Good food, drinks and that view. Could get very packed in summer so make sure you come early.

Ordered the lamb ribs, they were stone cold fatty and slimey. I informed the staff of this who took them away and returned with them still cold, fatty and slimey. I could see right into the kitchen and saw no effort being made to rectify my order. I left and sent an email advising of the poor food I recieved and had no response. Will not be going back, Peckham Level food much better.
